Introduction The reaction centre (carbenium centre) has direct interaction with a lone pair of electrons of an atom or with the electrons of s- or p-bond present within the parent molecule but these are not in conjugation with the reaction centre. A distinction is sometimes made between n, s and p- participation. An increase in rate due to Neighbouring Group Participation (NGP) is known as "anchimeric assistance". "Synartetic acceleration" happens to be the special case of anchimeric assistance and applies to participation by electrons binding a substituent to a carbon atom in a β- position relative to the leaving group attached to the α-carbon atom.

The new molecules are expected to exhibit plant growth stimulation properties. In particular, the yield in a situation of drought is expected to increase. Our synthesis makes use of the Favorskii reaction between cyclohexanone/piperidone and triple-bond containing alcohols. The structures of the obtained molecules were determined using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The electronic structure and geometries of the molecules were studied theoretically using first-principles calculations based on density functional theory. The calculated geometries agree very well with the experimentally determined ones, and also allow us to determine bond lengths, angles and charge distributions inside the molecules.

NUCLEOPHILIC SUBSTITUTION Mechanism of Aliphatic Nucleophilic Substitution. Aliphatic nucleophilic substitution clearly involves the donation of a lone pair from the nucleophile to the tetrahedral, electrophilic carbon bonded to a halogen. For that reason, it attracts to nucleophile In organic chemistry and inorganic chemistry, nucleophilic substitution is a fundamental class of reactions in which a leaving group(nucleophile) is replaced by an electron rich compound(nucleophile). The whole molecular entity of which the electrophile and the leaving group are part is usually called the substrate. The nucleophile essentially attempts to replace the leaving group as the primary substituent in the reaction itself, as a part of another molecule. The most general form of the reaction may be given as the following: Nuc: + R-LG → R-Nuc + LG: The electron pair (:) from the nucleophile(Nuc) attacks the substrate (R-LG) forming a new 1 bond, while the leaving group (LG) departs with an electron pair. The principal product in this case is R-Nuc. The nucleophile may be electrically neutral or negatively charged, whereas the substrate is typically neutral or positively charged.

  • Elimination Reactions Are Described
    Introduction In this module, different types of elimination reactions are described. From a practical standpoint, elimination reactions widely used for the generation of double and triple bonds in compounds from a saturated precursor molecule. The presence of a good leaving group is a prerequisite in most elimination reactions. Traditional classification of elimination reactions, in terms of the molecularity of the reaction is employed. How the changes in the nature of the substrate as well as reaction conditions affect the mechanism of elimination are subsequently discussed. The stereochemical requirements for elimination in a given substrate and its consequence in the product stereochemistry is emphasized. ELIMINATION REACTIONS Objective and Outline beta-eliminations E1, E2 and E1cB mechanisms Stereochemical considerations of these reactions Examples of E1, E2 and E1cB reactions Alpha eliminations and generation of carbene I. Basics Elimination reactions involve the loss of fragments or groups from a molecule to generate multiple bonds. A generalized equation is shown below for 1,2-elimination wherein the X and Y from two adjacent carbon atoms are removed, elimination C C C C -XY X Y Three major types of elimination reactions are: α-elimination: two atoms or groups are removed from the same atom. It is also known as 1,1-elimination. H R R C X C + HX R Both H and X are removed from carbon atom here R Carbene β-elimination: loss of atoms or groups on adjacent atoms. It is also H H known as 1,2- elimination. R C C R R HC CH R X H γ-elimination: loss of atoms or groups from the 1st and 3rd positions as shown below.

    CHEM 261 October 9, 2018 RECALL: Identification of Chiral and Achiral (not chiral) compounds Example: Diaminopimelic acid - The above molecule is achiral even though there are stereogenic center (s), because there is symmetry within the molecule - These kinds of molecules are called meso compounds, which are compounds that contain stereocenters yet because of their symmetry, have mirror images that can be superimposed. - All achiral molecules, including meso compounds do not rotate polarized light (i.e. [α]D = 0) - Diaminopimelic acid - a component of bacterial cell wall and biosynthetic precursor to the amino acid known as lysine - this R,S diaminopimelic acid (above) is a diastereomer of the enantiomers (S,S or R,R diaminopimelic acid) below: Mirror O O O O C S C C R C HO S OH HO R OH NH2 NH2 NH2 NH2 chiral chiral Enantiomers A racemic mixture (racemate) of two enantiomers in a 1:1 ratio also has an [α]D = 0 Resolution of Enantiomers Definition: separation of two enantiomers - Requires a chiral reagent The starting material lactic acids are enantiomers of each other. By reacting enantiomers to make a salt with an enantiomer of MDMA (another chiral molecule), one can obtain salts which are now diastereomers of each other (RS and RR). The resulting diastereomers have different melting points, boiling points, solubilities, and can be separated by crystallization. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Substitution Reactions Remember: Radical Substitution light R-H + X2 R-X + H-X Proceeds by a radical mechanism Alkane X=F, Cl, Br Alkyl Halide Not I Ionic Substitution: M Nu: + R-X Nu-R + :X M Nucleophile Alkyl Halide (Seeks positive charge) Nucleophile is a subtsnace that seeks positive charge Types of Nucleophilic Substitution (SN) SN1 - rate depends on 1 concentration SN2 - The rate is dependent on the concentration of the nucleophile and the nucleophile (2 concentrations) Sn2 Mechanism Reverse reaction will not occur.

  • Cyclopentane Synthesis
    Cyclopentane Synthesis Dan O’Malley Baran Group Meeting Cyclopentane Synthesis Group Meeting O'Malley 2/9/2005 This presentation is broken down into the following catagories. Some reactions either fit more than one Students of organic chemistry are taught a number of reactions for the synthesis of category or do not fit easily into any of them. Efforts have been made to place all such reactions in the cyclohexanes at a very early stage of their careers. Techniques for the creation of cyclopentanes, most appropriate category. however, are generally taught at a much later stage and are rarely given the same detailed treatment. This may be the result of the fact that there are no equivalents of reactions such as the Diels-Alder and I.

General Information This situation is further exacerbated by the general lack of cheaply available cyclopentane compounds Baldwin's rules in the chiral pool; wheras a number of cyclohexane terpenes are readily available for elaboration, there Baldwin has divided ring closure reactions into those that are "favored" and those that are "disfavored". are no analogous cylcopentane natural products. Cyclopentanes are however, present in many Those that are disfavored are not always impossible, but are frequently much more difficult to effect.

Fu* Division of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, California 91125, United States ABSTRACT: Classical methods for achieving nucleophilic substitutions of alkyl electrophiles (SN1 and SN2) have limited scope and are not generally amenable to enantioselective variants that employ readily available racemic electrophiles. Radical-based pathways catalyzed by chiral transition-metal complexes provide an attractive approach to addressing these limitations. ■ UNSOLVED CHALLENGES IN NUCLEOPHILIC SUBSTITUTION REACTIONS OF ALKYL ELECTROPHILES Nucleophilic substitution of an alkyl electrophile is an extremely useful strategy in organic synthesis (Figure 1). SN1 and SN2 reactions are the two classical pathways for achieving this process; both have significant limitations.1,2 Figure 2. Limitations of the SN1 reaction. nucleophile and the electrophile, and it is therefore often unsuccessful in the case of hindered primary (e.g., neopentyl) Figure 1. Nucleophilic substitution reactions of alkyl electrophiles: and secondary electrophiles (Figure 3). Furthermore, SN2 SN1 and SN2 reactions. reactions are generally conducted under Brønsted-basic conditions, which can
